In My Tongue

Well, with English, because it's a very global language, it obviously helps me communicate with people across the world. And with Swahili, it's been an advantage knowing it, especially here in Kenya, and at least even within other countries in Africa that speak Swahili. I'm able to get bargains for things and I'm able to also communicate in a different language when abroad and not in Kenya with other Kenyans, or people from even Tanzania or Uganda that speak Swahili.

For Kikuyu, it's been also an advantage, because during New Years, we hit a goat. [Laughter] Oh God, this story. I still can't believe this story happened, but anyway, yeah, we hit a goat, and when the owner of the goat came, he wanted us to pay, and like, he asked for so much money. But then like... When one of my friends started speaking in Kikuyu with him, then he lowered the price from like $400 to like $70. Yeah.
